As yesterday, I'm not an official part of the Blog Hop today, but I did make a couple of cards using today's set, Pretty Pears. My first one uses the smaller of the two pears and is rather monochromatic. I stamped a couple of the flower images to create my background "designer paper."
My second card doesn't use one of the pear images at all but a Spellbinders pear die. I cut the shape three times, twice from a piece of cardboard and the third time from some designer paper. The photo corners are punched from the same designer paper so that the colors would match. The lovely sentiment comes from today's set.
Thanks for stopping by even though I wasn't part of the official blog hop. But be sure to check out the participating blogs for more creativity using today's pretty set.
Here's the Design Team for today:

Lois, both cards are gorgeous. Love the colors you the first card and the layers on the second card!
Two lovely cards. The first one is such a riot of spring colour.
Oh my gosh, your first card is stunning and the second one fantastic as well. LOVE THOSE PEARS.
Both of these are fabulous! I love the cleanness of the green and white and the sentiment on the second is great! Thank you for the inspiration Karen P
